Hate? It's an epic of the mid-90's! We need to start printing shirts. I was just struck by the facial resemblance. No hate here.

Was going through old CCG cards and found this one. I call it "One Wolf Burk. With a mullet. And a spray-tan."

Much was lost to the Great Flock-pocalypse of 2014...

Yea - the scroll saved your Cold One Knights from an armor-melting death. That, and me being unable to roll more than like 5 dice to your 4 ;) Yea, dark riders don't like impact hits or high armor or long charges (to be fair, I got pretty lucky on a decently long charge into the first unit with both chariots). Hopefully we'll be up for the 1500+ spring league, at least once in a while.

Thanks for the game! Lots of brutal killing, but still managing to have virtually zero effect with magic :P

Bot the GamerMom and I will be there, assuming nobody gets sick. Again. :P

Sounds like fun! A blind tasting means that you don't know which sample is which. A double blind tasting means that you don't know, and your wife doesn't know - the intent with double-blind studies (in general) is usually to prevent bias from being introduced by the experimenters knowing whether they are working with the experimental group or the control group. In your case, it'd be to make sure your wife isn't giving you cues by placement or reaction as to which she or you expect will be the 'best' whiskey. Also, Scotch tastes like socks. Bourbon FTW!

Aaaaaaand to avoid marital combat, I won't be coming :P

I'll make a call tomorrow morning, but it looks like the threat of ice buildup from freezing rain is pretty low. I got the snow tires on - through sleet and snow and driving rain, my warhammer fix will be fed! :)

High elves play in all 4 phases - they all move well and have flyers and cavalry. They have some of the strongest magic and can get any of the 8 base lores + their own High Magic lore. The have good (light) shooting. Elite units fight well, both cavalry and infantry. They have monsters and beasts. They have armored units. The only disadvantage is their squishiness vs. their cost - they can die quickly. I think they'd play way better than VC at low points - VC depends heavily on magic to regrow their losses and can just get hammered at low points with no way to come back. Most of the HE units are a mix of male and female or are pretty androgynous. I haven't heard that the Sisters are particularly good, but if nothing else, there are a lot of female components for conversions and tons of female characters. I don't play any of those though, so take it with a grain of salt. Hope to see you on Sunday! Bringing my almost-8-year-old, so it'll be a kidstravaganza!

"And that's my famous ping-pong ball trick!" I never thought of using the balloon like that. I know that you can get it to stand when applying using a blow-on applicator (tricks from when I was 8 and into model railroading) but I don't use grass on my current basing scheme so I haven't had a chance to even think about building one.

Nate - I'd love to play your DE. 2400 points? Thanks for the 'looking awesome' comment, but for the most part I'd say they 'look perpetually partly finished" :) I'll bring my daughter at we'll be there @ 4 too. Hope yours like science and superheroes and videogames and Harry Potter and My Little Pony because that's probably all mine will talk about. Constantly :)

Those are the strangest birthday wishes I've ever received, but given the source, I should have expected. Thanks!

Eventually we will all meet up! How old is your daughter? Now that game night is earlier, I might bring mine too (she's almost 8).

I should be there with mine. The family is quite enthused about the 4pm time as it means I can be home for kid-bedtime.

Hah! I saw the post title and came to make a comment about our favorite bowling alley/porn site :)

Curse you, dancey-pants elves! And also my uncanny ability to roll 12 for flee distance TWICE with my big unit. And then not rally... The Sorcerer Lord didn't let you take him alive, though. After Gatewaying the crap outta the treeman, he said goodbye and was drawn into the Realm of Chaos on a miscast.
